Shen Jing didn't understand what his confusing statement meant.
Suddenly, his hand touched the back of my neck, making me shudder and bring me back to my senses.
Gu Yan's slender fingertips were as cold as a dead man's.
He pressed on Shen Jing's neck and pulled her slightly forward.
As the two stared at each other in silence, Shen Jing finally saw the anger on his face.
Anger? What reason could he possibly have to be angry?
Shen Jing blinked. "Uh, the wedding room?"
Gu Yan gave her a strange look. "Liang Jingyan bought this as their wedding house. Didn't you already break off the engagement? Why are you still looking for him?"
Shen Jing blocked his way with her hand, lowered her head to sort out her thoughts: "Stop! You... know I broke off the engagement, know he bought me a wedding house, what else do you know?"
Suddenly, an absurd yet seemingly perfectly reasonable idea lingered in Shen Jing's mind.
She blurted out to Gu Yan, "You're not a pushover, you're a liar!"
Gu Yan didn't explain, only saying calmly, "You can't go back to Liang Jingyan."
"No, what are you to me now?"
"You said you would always stay by my side." Gu Yan laid his cards on the table.
"It's impossible, whether in the past life or this life!" Shen Jing shook her head resolutely.
Gu Yan pursed his thin lips, his expression irritable. "I didn't force you. You said it yourself."
Shen Jing noticed something, looked up at his eyes, and sure enough, saw a red mark at the corner of his eye.
Gu Yan was also staring down at her, until he saw that her scalp tingled, before slowly saying, "You forgot."
Shen Jing found it unbelievable; at this moment, there was no doubt that Gu Yan had also been reborn.
Shen Jing hadn't expected Gu Yan to expose his identity so decisively.
But he said she forgot...forgot what?
At that moment, as if she had triggered some crucial information, she suddenly felt a splitting headache, and she was about to collapse and kneel in the snow, supporting her forehead.
Fortunately, Gu Yan held her waist and pressed his cold fingertips against her temples, using his supernatural power to heal her.
This action brought back a moment of memory for Shen Jing; she seemed to remember...
Shen Jing remembered that when she went out to collect supplies from the supermarket logistics park that day, she and Vassi were attacked, and she seemed to sense this energy fluctuation as well.
She said weakly, "You've been following me..."
At this moment, Gu Yan's expression was suppressed. He reached out and gently stroked Shen Jing's cheek, helping her brush the strands of hair from her face.
The burning pain spread silently throughout his body, and then the mutated vines slowly wrapped around his body.
The mutated vine seemed to want to greet Shen Jing, even wrapping her up in the silkworm made of vine.
Shen Jing was shocked by the familiar scene before her. She had clearly... clearly saved him in this life!
Why must he suffer the torment of this backlash from the power...?
In his past life, the more power Gu Yan overdrawn, the more severe the backlash he suffered.
This is all related to contamination from evolutionary agents obtained in the laboratory.
Pollution... When this word popped into Shen Jing's mind, she thought of the spiritual spring in her space.
Gu Yan's half-dead eyes stared intently at her, his gloomy aura all too familiar to Shen Jing; this was undoubtedly Gu Yan from her past life. He seemed about to explode, and at that moment, Shen Jing instinctively wanted to flee.
He raised his hand, and a crystal appeared in his palm.
Shen Jing recognized it too, "Energy Crystal Core".
All superhumans need energy crystals to evolve their level.
Some of these energy cores that are so sought after by superhumans are fruits produced by mutated vines.
The mutated vine was bound to Gu Yan in the laboratory, and even though he tried everything he could, he couldn't separate it.
But at this moment, Shen Jing couldn't care less about the crystal core.
She took out some spiritual spring water from her spatial storage. "Drink it."
Gu Yan looked at the crystal core lying alone in his palm, not understanding why she used to like it, but now she was so disdainful of it.
But he still leaned against her shoulder and obediently finished the cup of spiritual spring water.
The spiritual spring water was colorless and odorless, but it calmed his restless heart.
"Good stuff, why didn't I have this kind of water in my past life?" Gu Yan's eyes were much brighter than usual, completely different from his lifeless expression just now.
"Don't change the subject." Shen Jing said in a low voice, sitting next to him and shaking her empty glass.
Gu Yan could only emphasize, "Oh, you have amnesia."
Shen Jing didn't expect to be accused of something like this. "What does this have to do with you lying to me? What was your purpose in approaching me?"
Gu Yan casually toyed with the energy crystal core in his hand, "Once you find out, you'll definitely leave my side immediately."
"I want to leave right now..."
"impossible."
Gu Yan suddenly laughed and tossed the energy crystal core in his hand into her arms.
"You can't escape..."
Shen Jing couldn't help but recall the dream she had when she was reborn, in which he said the same thing.
Can madmen only exist in books? She doesn't want to see the so-called mad, beautiful, strong, and tragic characters in real life.
Yes, he's just a character in the book.
Moreover, he was definitely manipulated by the author of "The End of the World: Green Plum".
Just like the various stupid and idiotic things she did in her past life!
For some reason, Shen Jing felt a sense of shared misery.
"You might not believe it, but we've actually been living in a world within a book all along." Shen Jing revealed the truth, perhaps because from the moment she was reborn and learned the truth, she had wanted to confide in someone.
Gu Yan smiled mysteriously, "Is that so?"
